Abstract: A dispensing system is disclosed which utilizes an electronically powered key device and/or identification code associated with a refill container to preclude the need for mechanical keys. The system utilizes a near field frequency response to determine whether a refill container is compatible with a dispensing system. In particular, the refill container is provided with a coil terminated by one of a number of capacitors. The container is received in a housing that provides a pair of coils that are in a spatial relationship with the installed refill container's coil. By energizing one of the housing's coils, the other coil detects a unique electronic signature generated by the container's coil. If the signature is acceptable, the dispensing system is allowed to dispense a quantity of material. The system also provides a unique latching mechanism to retain the container and ensure positioning of all the coils.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composite coating and a method of preparing a composite coating resistant to galling and fretting. The coating is applied to a substrate and includes a mixture of hard carbide particles in an alloy matrix or oxides and solid lubricant particles captured in a binder. The coating is produced by using a thermal spray process to apply a powder containing both the hard face or oxide phases as well as the self lubricating phases. Thus, the applied coating of the present invention combines the benefits achieved with previous thermal spray coatings in terms of wear, abrasion, heat and corrosion with those afforded by solid lubricants. In addition, the coating of the present invention provides consistently distributed surface porosity to retain liquid lubricant on the coating surface.

Abstract: A magnetic recording method is provided where ternary data is recorded on a magnetic recording medium by forming a first area (52;62) that corresponds to a first value of the data and in which a first magnetization state is continued at least during the minimum write width. A second area (54;64) that corresponds to a second value of the data in which a second magnetization state is oppositely magnetized as compared with the first magnetization state is continued at least during the minimum write width. A third area (66) that corresponds to a third value of the data in which the magnetic intensity detected by the read head corresponds to a "0". Accordingly, the ternary data can be recorded using the characteristic that a signal having a width narrower than the detection width of the read head is not detected by the read head. The third area (66) is recorded by a high frequency signal generator generating a high frequency signal having a higher frequency than a write frequency corresponding to the minimum write width.
